Appearance
Han Feng is described as a handsome man in ornate white robes, with an imposing and refined bearing that drew attention from the younger women at his auction. 105
- White, ornate robes. 105
- Top-tier appearance and temperament. 105
- Maintains a composed public image as the Medicine Emperor, though his demeanor turns ferocious when the Burning Mantra is involved. 105 119
Personality
Han Feng is ambitious, status-conscious, and highly calculating. He built Medicine Emperor City into a major Black-Corner Region power and used auctions, rare pills, and alliances with powerful factions to reinforce his influence. 105 109 118
His pursuit of Heavenly Flames and the Burning Mantra exposes a far more obsessive side. Upon discovering that Xiao Jie cultivated the Burning Mantra and possessed fused Heavenly Flames, Han Feng immediately abandoned restraint and attempted to seize both for himself. 119
He is not reckless when faced with overwhelming danger. During the struggle over the Mystic Yellow Flame, he only tested the other factions' attitudes before yielding his immediate claim; when trapped by Xiao Jie, however, his desperation drove him to call upon Protector Xuan and accept the Soul Hall's terms. 91 120
Abilities & Skills
Seventh-Rank Alchemy
Han Feng was a seventh-rank alchemist whose reputation allowed him to influence the Black-Corner Region's major factions.
- Held major auctions featuring high-grade medicinal pills and cultivation resources. 105 106
- Offered the seventh-rank Yin Yang Profound Dragon Pill as payment for assistance from Dou Ancestor-level experts. 109
- Possessed the tutelage of Venerable Yao, the Sea Heart Flame, and the Myriad Beast Cauldron, all of which enhanced his pill refinement. 107
- Used his alchemist status to turn Maple City into the widely recognized “Medicine Emperor City.” 118
Sea Heart Flame
Han Feng controlled the Sea Heart Flame, the fifteenth-ranked Heavenly Flame.
- Manifested it as a vast azure sea of fire capable of extinguishing Xiao Jie's fire spirits. 119
- Its power enabled him, while still a half-step Dou Ancestor, to contend with genuine Dou Ancestor experts for a short time. 88 119
- The flame feared Xiao Jie's fused Heavenly Flames during their battle. 119
- Xiao Jie later forced Han Feng's soul to remove its imprint from the flame and seized it. 123
Combat Strength
Han Feng was a dangerous combatant even before his breakthrough, with cultivation and a Heavenly Flame strong enough to place him among the Black List's foremost experts.
- Ranked third on the Black List before advancing, later effectively taking one of its highest positions as other leading experts entered the Dou Ancestor realm. 122

Background / History
Rise of Medicine Emperor City
Han Feng established himself in the Black-Corner Region less than a decade before the conflict with Xiao Jie. His presence transformed Maple City from a small-to-medium-sized settlement into a prosperous regional center, so widely identified with him that it became commonly known as Medicine Emperor City. 116 118
As his reputation grew, Han Feng used high-grade pills and auctions to cultivate ties with regional powers. At a major auction, he and the Black-Imperial Sect jointly warned attendees against causing trouble, demonstrating the political weight of their partnership. 105
Competition for Heavenly Flames
Han Feng joined the struggle for the masterless Mystic Yellow Flame with a formidable contingent of allies. After the Lava Alligator Dragon Beast was killed, he tested whether the other factions would permit him to attempt subduing the flame first, but withdrew the demand when the Black-Imperial Sect and Demon Flame Valley objected. 89 91
His rivalry with Xiao Jie escalated after he recognized the Burning Mantra and fused Heavenly Flames within Xiao Jie. Han Feng regarded the discovery as an opportunity to take both Xiao Jie's flames and the cultivation technique he coveted. 107 119
Fall at Medicine Emperor City
Following his breakthrough to the Dou Ancestor realm, Han Feng was confronted by Xiao Jie's forces at Medicine Emperor City. He initially underestimated Xiao Jie, but Xiao Jie used the Heavenly Fire Three-Mysterious Transformation to rise to four-star Dou Ancestor strength and deployed the Five-Wheel Fire-Separation Array to imprison him. 118 119
Unable to break the array, Han Feng endured repeated attacks and called for Protector Xuan's aid, agreeing to the Soul Hall's conditions in exchange for rescue. Xiao Jie ended the battle with the Heaven-Burning Fist, leaving Han Feng severely wounded and capturing his soul. 120
Xiao Jie later interrogated Han Feng about his dealings with the Soul Hall, then compelled him to relinquish the Sea Heart Flame. 122 123
Relationships
- Xiao Jie — Rival and eventual killer. Han Feng coveted Xiao Jie's Heavenly Flames and Burning Mantra, but was defeated at Medicine Emperor City; Xiao Jie captured his soul and took the Sea Heart Flame. 119 120 123
- Protector Xuan — Soul Hall protector connected to Han Feng. Han Feng called for his aid while trapped, agreeing to his conditions in desperation; Protector Xuan ultimately retreated. 120
- Soul Hall — Han Feng had dealings with the organization, details of which he disclosed under Xiao Jie's interrogation. 123
- Old Man Ying Shan — Allied Dou Ancestor who accompanied Han Feng during the contest for the Mystic Yellow Flame and later fled after Han Feng's defeat. 89 120
- Gold and Silver Elders — Close combat allies recruited by Han Feng; they supported him during the Heavenly Flame conflict and fled Medicine Emperor City after his fall. 89 120
- Black-Imperial Sect — Political partner that co-hosted Han Feng's auction. 105
- Venerable Yao — Han Feng received his alchemical tutelage from him. 107
